Trinity Lodge, a 4-star graded guest house and Top 100 Restaurant in Darling on the West Coast will offer culinary getaways throughout June and October.

The getaways are hosted by Debbie McLaughlin, an internationally trained chef who owns and runs the lodge as well as Hilda's Kitchen, the restaurant on the award winning wine farm Groote Post.

The getaway takes up to 12 guests at a time and the culinary courses are run in the cosy Trinity Lodge kitchen.

A combination of demonstrations and practicals, the courses are run for two days and guests can expect to learn to prepare items like a robust roast tomato and aubergine tart, wintry dishes like a lamb, mint and pea pie and a pear and polenta cake.

All dishes are explained in detail and recipes for each dish prepared are supplied.

The classes take place in the morning and late afternoons and other activities are set up during the day including golf, wine and olive tastings at local cellars and lunch at the historic Manor House at Groote Post.

Visits to local galleries and crafters can be arranged as well as shows with Pieter-Dirk Uys at Evita se Perron.

The events have become very popular so early booking is advised.

The cost is R1 500 per person and includes two nights B&B, two lunches, two dinners, two wine tastings and all tuition.
